Hi! I’m Mark, your humble host and founder of Code Chart. You can follow our progress on twitter (@codechart) if you like reading about burning servers and other n00b startup mistakes. I spent most of the last decade ravenously consuming everything Joel, Paul Graham and – yes – Steve Yegge ever wrote.

If any of those names are unfamiliar to you, you shouldn’t be wasting your time with me. There’s a world of really good writing waiting for you behind those links. Well, not so much Steve, I guess. Ah, God bless them all, even though they stopped writing and forced me onto a diet of Hacker News and Reddit. Eventually all that reading started spilling out into writing, and here we all are. Funny old world.
